They are right for upgrades.
It's a hard to shutdown 1 TB database and wait couple of days
pg_upgrade to finish upgrade and meanwhile database is offline.
In some distros after upgrade of PG version you don't have old binary
and library, need to do full dump and restore that take time and disk
space.

Yeah, very hard indeed when done by unskilled DBAs :-)

I've done several ~7TB pg_upgrades and with the hard link option and a
framework that parallelizes the post-analyzer phase...

...45 minutes till completion.
